are depicted as loving brother and sister angels. This painting was completed
near the end of the project. I continued to think about how I would arrange
them on the canvas to show them as individuals and family. I thought
of the older more protective brother who would be there for his sister
and the sweetness of the little sister who appreciates the comfort of being
with him. I also wanted the painting to bring comfort to the parents who
realize that even though the family is separated, somehow, somewhere, they
are still together. -- Wayne Taylor
